THE URBAN PREDICAMENT Cities in developing countries are expanding very rapidly. Most of the development is in the form of urban sprawl at the fringe of the urban areas (Ginsburg et al., 1991).

Common Concerns

• Increasing pressure on land, water and environment • Depleting

natural

resources,

valuable

natural

habitats and hinterlands • Loss of agricultural land • Long commutes and traffic jams • High social and infrastructure costs • Leap-frog development Threat to health of our families, our communities, and the ecosystems that sustain us.

This triggers the need for optimization of use of resources at hand 1989

INTRODUCTION

THE COMPACT CITY CONCEPT

COINED BY DEFINITION

The term Compact City was coined by George Dantzig and Thomas L. Saaty, two mathematicians, in 1973 whose utopian vision was largely driven by a desire to see more efficient use of resources.

Attempts to increase built area and residential population densities; to intensify urban economic, social and cultural activities and to manipulate urban size, form and structure and settlement systems in pursuit of the environmental, social and global sustainability benefits derived from the concentration of urban functions.

Urban form:

Dense and proximate development patterns Urban areas linked by public transport systems Accessibility to local services and jobs

Spatial characteristics:

Mixed land use Diversity of life Social interaction Feeling of safety in numbers - 'eyes on the street' Clear identity

Source: OECD Compact City Policies

Compact urban form can be a major means of guiding urban development to sustainability, especially in reducing the negative effects of the present dispersed pattern of development in Western cities (Jenks et al., 1996).

The promotion of compact development could help • Protect the loss of prime agricultural land, • Reduction in environmental footprint due to increased density • Reduce development costs, • Reduced reliance on automobiles • Reduce pollution • Save energy and thereby, promote more sustainable urban development.

Elkin et al, 1991

INTRODUCTION

Cities in the developing countries are by virtue of the prevailing social and economic conditions are compact and higher in density Traditional Compact City

Metros today

DEVELOPING COUNTRIES High population density, which is prevalent in many developing countries, indicates that urban land resources are acutely scarce, and makes compact cities a necessity rather than a choice.

(Jieming Zhu, 2011)

Added Concerns • Fast-growing • Inherent Compactness of inner core – little impact on urban containment • Key issue of Unsustainable Urban form • Inadequate infrastructure • Located in naturally hazardous areas, areas of high relief, on the floodplains major rivers,

Urban restructuring has become a major strategy for realizing the sustainability benefits of compaction in developing countries. (Rod Burgess, Compact City Debate, 2000) Source: EuroIndia Newletter, Vol 6

Profligate use of land, both in developed and developing countries, result in a disproportionate use of resources and urban forms that are often unsustainable (Jenks et al., 1996).

This emphasizes on the need for a Model for Sustainable Development of the degrading Urban Form and Quality of Life in cities and particularly in the renewal/ redevelopment of existing urban form

SCOPE: •

The scope of the thesis shall primarily address only three planning zones/ neighbourhoods - Detailed demarcation of site area shall follow a pilot Urban Form Analysis - Assuming the criteria to delineate and area of 4-5 sq. km from an existing transport node (10 min cycling distance or 800m radius)

•

A comparative analysis of the three different planning profiles on the basis of delineated parameters to establish as to which of them is a more feasible for compaction.

LIMITATIONS: •

Considering the wide scope of parameters for study, predominant thrust shall be laid primarily on the Expert Opinion Survey to arrive at priority parameters (dependant on the Urban Form analysis and data availability and suitability).

•

Attempt to study the Sustainability Indicators and Compact City Policies from existing research only (OECD Compact city Policies, research papers addressing compact urban form).

•

Development of models for assessment of compact urban form are beyond the scope. Existing criteria for evaluation from current research shall be adopted.

•

Detailed financial aspects, land market assessment and speculations inherent in the system shall not be focused on.

TORCH BEARERS OF COMPACT DEVELOPMENT

GEORGE DANTZIG AND THOMAS L. SAATY

• Coined the term Compact City with an utopian vision to see more efficient use of resources.

JANE JACOBS

•The influence of compact urban form often attributed to Jane Jacobs and her book – The Death and Life of Great American Cities.

•Supported compact city neighborhoods where different kinds of households and individuals (families, elderly, entrepreneurs, artists, migrants, students) live together • Mix of functions • Short building blocks and an intricate street structure • Opportunities for social interaction as well as a feeling of safety in numbers and 'eyes on the street'.

RICHARD ROGERS – Towards and Urban Renaissance

•Firmly advocates that a sustainable urban form is based on a series of interlinked compact nodes or neighbourhoods which grow around centres of social and commercial activity located at public transport nodes.

• The Urban Taskforce under Lord Richard Rogers, which produced the report Towards an Urban Renaissance • Guidance on Housing - introduced a 60% Brownfield target, a minimum net residential density guideline of 30 dwellings per hectare, which were substantially exceeded over the years to brownfield proportion reaching 80% by 2009, and average densities 43 dwellings per hectare • Maximum parking guidelines replacing the previous minima • Policy of intensification around public transport nodes

OPTIMUM USE OF RESOURCES

SENSE OF SAFETY & SECURITY

BROWNFIELD DEVELOPMENT HIGH RISE DEVELOPMENT

WILLIAM, DEMPSEY, 2010

•Stated that Compact Cities are more sustainable urban settlement type than urban sprawl because it is less dependent on the car, requiring less (and cheaper per capita) infrastructure provision • Draw from the experiences of developed countries

URBAN SPRAWL POLLUTION

PETER NEWMAN AND JEFF KENWORTHY

• Compared 32 cities across North America, Australia, Europe and Asia.

•Main finding was that denser cities, particularly in Asia, have lower car use than sprawling cities, particularly in North America

URBAN SPRAWL

MIKE JENKS, ROD BURGESS, 1996

• Compact urban form can be a major means of guiding urban development to sustainability, especially in reducing the negative effects of the present dispersed pattern of development in Western cities (Jenks et al., 1996).

•To increase built area and residential population densities; to intensify urban economic, social and cultural activities and to manipulate urban size, form and structure and settlement systems in pursuit of the environmental, social and global sustainability benefits derived from the concentration of urban functions.

• Dependence on 2-wheeler’s is maximum irrespective of zone • A considerable section preferred walking to work in Ameerpet and Kukatpally, but Madhapur proved to be otherwise irrespective of the efforts taken by the CDA in making the area pedestrian and cyclist-friendly. Also, walking the large distances in Madhapur doesn’t seem feasible to many.

• Preference to walk and use bus services for shopping and education trips as against usage of 2-wheelers and 4-wheelers in case of work trips.

• Long distances are covered by bus irrespective of trip purpose. IPT is user for work trips if the distance is less, but for shopping and education, it is preferred even though the distances are relatively longer.

DATA ANALYSIS

PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

Total length of the distribution system is 1727 Km 90 % of population are covered with potable water supply in MCH area and 65% in surrounding municipalities.

• Piped water supply in MCH area is around 70% and is much lower in surrounding municipalities, averaging to around 43%.

• Water is supplied for ½ hr to 2 hrs every alternate day in MCH area and 1 hr every third day in surrounding municipalities.

• •

Current estimated demand stands at 290 mgd but installed capacity is merely 245 mgd.

• Estimated ground water extraction that supplements water supply is 25 mgd which accounts to only around 270 mgd supply.

• The gap between demand and supply is likely to only widen by 2021 when it is estimated that 400 mgd is required.

• Majority share prefer to travel by 2-wheelers or bus as per convenience and budget.

• The Hi-Tech City metro station location faces least hindrance due to traffic relatively to the upcoming station at Ameerpet and Kukatpally.

• Kukatpally stretch faces a serious issue of traffic congestion due to a large pedestrian movement and traffic movement with intermittent pavement tus, creating multiple conflict points • The Kukatpally road also needs to be recovered from potholes. Congestion due to IPT parking is a serious concern on this stretch.

• Ameerpet commercial zone faces a major problem of slow moving traffic which is a result of the conflict caused during peak hours SOURCE: Traffic Volume Survey, Intersection Count Survey & CTS Report by LEA Associates

PROPOSALS

INITIAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR POLICY FORMULATIONS •

TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT

•

Multiple Use is permitted in areas covered by 300 mtrs from proposed MRTS Stations to encourage, Transit Oriented Development (TOD), walk to work etc.

It is proposed to grant 150% of TDR (at present 100% of the areas surrendered is applicable for TDR) for area surrender for road widening free of cost to Local Body.

•

Since most MRTS stations are expecting the residential population to access the station through private vehicles, it is proposed that all stations being considered be designed as multi-modal hubs for effective traffic management based on the inputs gathered during traffic survey and ridership count of the metro at every station.

• •

Plot Sub-division permitted subject to minimum plot size of 50 Sq.Mtrs Considering threshold density limits of 300-500 du/ ha for Intense zone, 250-350 du/ha for standard zone and 200-250 du/ha for transition zone. (as drafted by UTTIPEC)

•

Plots Amalgamation will be permitted. Mixed uses is proposed to be permitted if the amalgamated plots size is 4000 Sq.Mtrs and above and abutting 18 mtrs road width.

•

Based on the inputs received from the real estate developers on the typology and scope of projects coming up in the various zones.

SOCIAL ACCEPTANCE

•

Based on the inputs received from the neighbourhood survey of residents and retailers for social acceptance of the concept of redevelopment for compaction.

ENVIRONMENTAL FEASIBILITY

•

Based on the threshold limits of air pollution and noise levels

BUILDING HEIGHT • G+19 to G+7 in the Intense Zone (i.e 300 m) around a metro station, G+3 to G+7 in the standard zone (i.e 800 m) and G to G+3 in the transition zone (>1000 m)

PLOT COVERAGE & SETBACKS • Minimum Front Setback for projects with plot size less than 2500 m is 3 m and for projects with plot size greater than 2500 m is 6m • Minimum rear setbacks for projects with plot size less than 2500 m is 1.5 m and for projects with plot size greater than 2500 m is 3m • Minimum side setbacks for projects with plot size less than 2500 m is 1.5 m and for projects with plot size greater than 2500 m is 3m • Maximum plot coverage for projects with plot size less than 2500 m is 50% and for projects with plot size greater than 2500 m is 40%. For smaller residential and commercial plots of size 2500 sq m to 250 sq m, it is 60%.

PLOT RE-ORGANISATION • Revenue generating plots to be identified and re-organised in coherence to priority planning activity • Developable land, old structures (under-utilised/ dilapidated), low built ground coverage to be identified as they provide maximum scope for re-development • Follow a grid of 120m with access road of 12 m at 30 m distance to satisfy the fire safety norms and ventilation for the G+7 structures

PLANNING GUIDELINES • Transfer of Development Rights • Accomodation Reservation • Incentive Zoning for the benefit of the community • PPP Mechanisms

URBANPROPOSALS DESIGN STRATEGIES

TRAFFIC & TRANSPORTATION GUIDELINES PEDESTRIAN ROAD NETWORK • Provision of min. 3 m wide uninterrupted footpaths on either side of the road • Green corridor to be provided as a separation between the road and the footpath and road • Regulation of the movement from footpath to the road by identifying specific locations for access

ROAD NETWORK & HIERARCHY • Restriction of vehicular movement within a radius of 300m and complete pedestrianisation • Widening roads along the 300 m pedestrian buffer for including cycle tracks and the peak traffic volume

INTERNAL ROADS • Making the internal roads pedestrian friendly by providing appropriate street Infrastructure • Eliminating visual barriers in purview of safety. Plantations used should have a porous cover such that the view through it is clearly visible • Incorporating a green spine along the road with intermittent plazas for seating or waiting

PARKING • Provision of parking at Mutli-modal hub to encourage travel by metro • Multi-level parking, private vehicles to be parked at upper levels and other IPT & cycles & two wheelers to be parked at ground and lower levels • Parking space for all residential and commercial buildings should be accommodated within the premises itself • Earmarking temporary spaces in cellars of buildings • Public car parking projects in private projects for insurance of extra/ additional incentive FSI.
